Exactly. This year more than ever before (certainly since the Mercer days), our team needs our support. I know things have not gone well recently, but that is in the past. Now is the time to look forward. The team needs our support to build a better future.

When the going gets tough, what do you do?

Both were poor managers at Hibs and Collin's signings were particulary bad, in fact I would say they were the worst in recent history ....and thats saying something. I cant see Livi being a success with those 2 at the helm.

No loving for John Collins - just liked how he TRIED to show players how to play, train and live like a professional footballer. He was pi$$ing up against a :brickwall

He is nearly 45 years old and could still play in the lower leagues (my opinion).
Ok he made mistakes along the way, but who doesn't in life!

He did sign some dross too, but that is the Hibs way, sell good players and buy cheap and if you get a good cheap player - sell him to your nearest rivals!

Didier Agathe is probably the best scenario that we let slip! £50k FFS

And by the way, I do go to ER, have done so since I was a boy.

and what about folk shouting good stuff? that just ignored? When I am at games aye folk shout but its not 1000s it is some folk and plenty of time it is cancelled out by plenty of applause at times which will be heard far more than any shouts.

If you want to put that into workplace then you cant just select the parts at a game you think, you have to select all so yes I will accept the pay the stick from you as long as I also have the good parts that far far outweigh some folk shouting yer p1sh at matches.

It also irks me that folk type alot of nonsense, I´m one of them, but if you dont wish to see it dont read it, you cant deny there is not alot to complain about at Hibs, 3 new signings after shipping a whole team out the door?
The club still makes statements for us to support them, the club has done absolutely nothing in 3 odd years except get to one SC Cup Final. We have backed them with hard cash for little or no return, alot of posters have had it with Hibs, especially this week, PLEASE OH PLEASE BUY SEASON TICKETS, no sooner had they shifted "hundreds of tickets"they then shafted these fans by having TV shift the games to a sunday yi couldnae ****in make it up, at the moment there are more negative things around Hibs than positive, thats maybe why folk are posting more negative stories:dunno:

Anyhoos I,m looking forward to a new season without the buns and a derby in the second week so bring it on.

Ive no qualms with folk slagging the club, I get bored when they make the same point over and over. Why slag the lack of signings if you hardly set foot inside ER thus not providing the manager with transfer funds? Who are the 3 new signingswe have made during the summer?

That post was pish. Try harder.

There's howls of derision at every mistake made, some of what I've heard shouted is ridiculous.

I counted about twelve minutes after his debut to the first "YOU'RE *****, CLAROS". Ridiculous scenario.

And the same 'youngsters' who have been in the team for FIVE (yes, that's FIVE) years...:rolleyes:

Yet again people living again in the .net bubble.

Hibs.net is not Hibs and it is not visited by the vast majority of Hibs supporters. Yes there is plenty negativity on this board, people bumping their gums about plenty of topics and some times with good reason but never,NEVER is that same negativity displayed at the games. The crowd always backs the team even in the most humiliating of circumstances like the cup final.

Please don't mistake people letting off steam in here with supporting the team on the terraces.

Howls of derision will happen no matter where a player plays as will comments, the derision they will hear, I disagree they will always here the your p1shes shouted unless it is all at once which it isnt as it is individuals, again you ignore the plenty of claps on a good pass or shot?

That is the scenario they are aware of so a player takes away just the shouting he gets and nothing else? How often has a player had a shout then 2mins later 20x the amount of folk are clapping a pass, happens in every game.

And you talk of stick, calling peoples posts p1sh, luckily I can handle that unlike footballers eh?

I agree with you Spike except for the bold bit.

If the crowd always back the team how do I hear booing and slagging of the players at ER?

You always get the occasional buffoon at the fitba Scoopy we are all old enough and wise enough to know that there are certain folk we would rather not sit beside but we notice these guys because they are the exception that proves the rule. Nearly everybody in ER on matchday is there willing them to win and backing the team.

Not that random if you play football manager. I cheapo signing at the start of the game who is quality.

This thread is full of rubbish, but the fans just want new signings, and everything seems to have gone quiet regarding anyone joining the club. Its ridiculous the squad we are taking into a new season.

The only way to get thread back on track is for someone to post a rumour. If Scoopyboy isn't hearing anything we may as well close the thread.

You will hear slagging and booing but you will hear clapping and encoragement also, I certainly do. Of course folk shout out but IMO in grand scheme of a matchaday, players come out to good cheers as game goes some complain but lots do not and clap, HT will be either the main boo or cheer (apart from a goal) same in 2nd half with again main boo or cheer on final whistle.

Over course of game plenty of far louder claps than shouts of negativity and all this a player will find at any club that is well underperforming.

Indeed. The leaders of the Scottish game and the SPL chairmen should take note.

Not strictly true mate:greengrin

Speedway posted up last night one but admit I wished the likes of Brooster, TQM, etc would post rumours as they are generally accurate.

How often were you at ER last season? When things were going wrong the crowd was pretty quick to turn, especially on the chosen whipping boys. A couple of opposition managers commented on how playing at home seemed to work against Hibs for that very reason.

Surely we'd have to sign up Maybury & Kerr today for them to be eligible sunday?
